Dynamics of Positive Frequency Dependent Selection Triggers Selection for Silence by I. Hashem, V. De Buck, J. Van Impe

“…In this paper, by applying a solution concept from evolutionary game theory, we hypothesize that the process of emergence of such alleles triggers selection for silence, where the emergence of alleles that can stay unexpressed for a period of time will be favored by selection forces. We illustrate our hypothesis using a mathematical model of a population of single locus diploid organisms with two alleles where a single mutant of an allele that experiences positive frequency dependent selection appears in a population where the other allele is a dominant. …”
